Answer to Allah and the Rasool when he calls you to what would revive you, [8:24] , he -asws said: ‘Wilayah of Ali -asws ’’. [14] ‘The Imam Muhammad -asws Bin Ali Al-Baqir -asws having said regarding Words of the Exalted: O you who believe! Answer to Allah and the Rasool when he calls you to what would revive you, [8:24] . He -asws said: ‘(Calls to) the Wilayah of Ali -asws Bin Abu Talib -asws ’’.

[15] ‘From one of the two (5 th or 6 th Imam -asws ): ‘Quraysh gathered, and people came out from every family, then they went to the house of consultation (Al-Nadwa) in order to consult each other regarding what they should be doing with Rasool-Allah -saww . There they were with an old man standing at the door, and when they went to him in order to enter, he said, ‘Let me enter (as well) with you’.

They said, ‘And who are you, O sheykh?’ He said, ‘I am a sheykh from Egypt and there is an opinions for me I can consult with to you all’. Then entered and sat down and consulted, and he sat, and they united their matter upon that they would expel him -saww . He said, ‘This isn’t with an opinion for you. If you -saww were to expel him -saww , the people he -saww will gather the people and they will fight against you’. They said, ‘You speak the truth. This is not a (correct) opinion’.

Then they consulted and gathered their matter upon that they would imprison him -saww . He said, ‘This isn’t a (correct) opinion if you were to do this, and Muhammad -saww is a man of a sweet tongue. He -saww will corrupt upon you, your sons and your servants and not one of you will benefit when his brother or his son or his wife separates from him’’. Then they consulted and gathered their matter upon that they would kill him -saww .

There will come out from every family of theirs a man, and they will strike him -saww with their swords altogether upon the shoulders’. Then he -asws recited the Verse: And when those who committed Kufr plotted against you in order to confine you or kill you [8:30] – up to the end of the Verse’’. [16] ‘Rasool-Allah -saww said regarding the Words of Allah -azwj Mighty and Majestic: And prepare for them whatever force you are able to and from the equipped cavalry horses [8:60] .

He -saww said: ‘The archery’’.
